lilj4425 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Did you not get the batch of sleet/snow that I had about an hour ago? Nope. It stayed off to my north. Hopefully I will once this batch from NE Georgia comes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCYanky Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 We had some spitting flakes around 12 here in Taylors,but by the time we got done with breakfast it had dissapated. The surface temps seemed to have dropped significantly in the last hour so guess its just a waiting game at this juncture...Bring on the snow!!!

earlwx Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 When is this storm suppose to end in North GA? Towards evening? I know the NWS says that it is suppose to end by 1am, but looking at radar trends I can't help to think things will be winding down by 5pm. Or am I misguided?

Carvers Gap Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 3/4 of an inch in Kingsport, TN at the moment. Looks like the backside of the precipitation is quickly getting cut-off. The RUC implies there will be more activity in the 3-4 hr range...Not sure if that is more energy rotating through, or moisture sliding over the mountains.The cut-off line in E TN is going to be sharp.

I have noticed that too, kind of concerned the RUC may be off. I certainly don't understand where the back edge of this will set up, but most models give .4 to .5 qpf so I can't imagine it's to our east. Also, thanks for the update. My wife and I are about to leave to come home from Tazewell (heading over Clinch Mtn). I am a little concerned the RUC picks up the intensity, but if we don't leave now we might have issues after dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Been all rain here. That sun this morning killed my temps and my chance for early sleet. Guess now I'll have to wait for the heavier precip. and the cooling after dusk. Fortunately I haven't lost too much precip to rain thus far, but it also hasn't cooled me down either. Still 40.

I would say unless something drastic happens that's beyond my weather hobbiest pay grade...Precip looks to be cutting off pretty quickly. The cut-off on precip is one county to my west. But the RUC has been pretty consistent that this is not the end of it. Where I am at a complete loss is what is happening w/ the energy to our northwest. It is possible, but seemingly unlikely, that it may interact to enhance snowfall later on here in NE TN. Have a safe trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewall Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 This may be weenie panic but for some reason I lost the good feeling. I think us nearing 50 outside isn't helping much. I don't know I am definitely feeling anxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKY18 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 too me the radar looks terrible i think im in weenie panic mode as well i need someone to give an explanation as to why it looks so bad right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshetley Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I think it's obvious that it wont be anything like the models are showing. Radar trends are everything now and they are bad. This may work for RDU and NE of there, but here in upstate SC just a 2-3 hour rain and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the precip in NC now I believe is with a northern stream impulse and our coastal is still far to the south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a safe trip! That's what I am thinking too. My wife is telling me let's go (which for me isn't a problem - I have a 4wheel drive). She has a front wheel drive mini-van. The only thing that concerns me a little bit is the RUC. She just asked me if we should stay another day and I honesly have no clue. Looking at radar trends I say yes. Looking at the RUC I say hmmmmmmmmmmmm maybe not. What to do, what to do.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a safe trip! I think the precip currently in Kentucky and Middle Tennessee, which looks to be associated with 500 mb vorticity advection, should enhance the precip in Tennessee a bit in the coming hours. I think that's what the RUC is picking up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beanskip Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 You see this and conclude you will get a 2-3 hour rain? Have you considered another hobby?

burgertime Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 lolz at lest for me I expected this to start around 4 - 6 p.m. thought there might be an outside chance of early snow but I have no idea why everyone got in their head this would start so early?

Nathan Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Snow starting to mix with light rain in Monroe, Ga about 20 miles east of Athens, Ga. Current temp is 40.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshetley Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 You see this and conclude you will get a 2-3 hour rain? Have you considered another hobby? Looks like it's moving ENE to me. Needs to be moving more to the north I think. Would be nice to get the precip I see in South Alabama and Florida up here but I dont see that happening.

Wow Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 RUC continues to move the SLP further west. It's now inland over GA near Savannah. it was offshore a few runs ago. that has moved the 0 line further west a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
